Hypno's cheaper than therapy debt diary.

hypno06

I have to admit that the "normality" of a "proper" paid job has taken a lot of the stress from me - the erratic nature of being self employed had advantages, but with the debt payments and the expensive kids' hobbies it was always going to be hard to continue magically producing the money in the way that I have been doing!

I'm sure you've made the right choice, and you sound relieved. I'm really pleased for you.

I'm hanging on in with self-employment. I'm lucky in that I do earn pretty well (and just imagine how much more I could earn if I got organised!) So when I weigh up the pros and cons of a 'proper' job vs erratic self-employment, the latter still wins, just about. Though I am seriously tempted by the idea of a part-time PAYE job. If only I could fine one well-paid and local enough. oops sorry thread hijack!

I'm glad you're taking those couple of days now - sounds like you could do with them. And you're right, the money did seem to be coming from nowhere - with kids, its often better to have a nice fat salary coming in! See you tomorrow, and I hope this project is going well.

Thats some list!!!!...it would take me that long to write my list I wouldn't have time to do anything off the list...lol...have a good day yourself.

Surfbabe

Cripes Hypno - you make me feel worn out just reading your list !!!!

I'm at home still - been signed off for a week with chest infection so not doing anything worthwhile as it all seems to much effort.

Might catch up later on here though

Have a good day !!

hypno06

Oh surfbabe - I hope you soon feel better.

I have also got to add to my list "look at assignment"........otherwise I will be in bother!!

and you to xxx

(not going anywhere today so if you fancy adding to that list and nabbing a coffee let me know.)

hypno06

Yes, P - those cheques now total £410 and need to be paid in!! They will be in the account today.

Coffee sounds like an absolute definite - let me know what your plans are for the day, or just give me a shout when you fancy!

As for my list - so far it is only growing - no effort made as yet to do anything constructive with my day.......hmm.....obviously need another trip to that part of the worktop where the kettle lives

Mental health and time to breathe day-sounds like a really good idea.
Enjoy !
